Chapter 335 Luckily, Zion was on the phone, and Rachel thought that what I said wasn't harsh enough.
"She doesn't even deserve to be dumped in a stinking ditch. Her body should be thrown into a septic tank," she spat.
Rachel's ferocity managed to cover up my earlier slip of the tongue.
I watched as the suspicion in Eason's eyes slowly cleared away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZion hung up the call and looked at Eason. "The case with the mutilated corpses has been closed." Eason was taken aback by that. "It has?" "Well, the superiors called to say that the aid I provided to make the arrest was commendable since I got injured in the line of duty. I've apparently contributed to the closure of the case with the mutilated corpses, "They said that they want to awardwith a medal of honor at the Traffic Enforcement Unit," Zion said with a small smirk. He thought that they were going to finally reinstate him. But the truth was far from it.
"Is that all?" Eason asked through gritted teeth.
"Well, they've also givena long vacation. They said to only cback to work once my arm heals," Zion replied.
Eason scratched his head. "So, the case is closed just like that? Huh..." It was clear that someone from above was pushing for the case's closure. The serial murder case had dragged on for quite a long while without any closure being given, after all.
The case involved the mutilation of corpses, after all. Seeing as the supposed culprit had been caught, the case needed to be closed promptly. Otherwise, it would incite widespread.

"You guys should head back first. I'll check out the situation," Eason said, then spun on his heel to seek the superiors out.
I looked at Steven. He was still holding ontoand seemed unwilling to let go.
Michael scoffed and turned to leave.
"Mr. Ford, you've lost..." Steven couldn't help but remind him mockingly. His tone was cautious, as if he was afraid that I'd get angry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMichael's expression darkened with anger as he barked out, "You're so childish!" Steven snorted and tightened his grip on my hand. Then, he scolded Michael loudly enough for everyone around us to hear, “You so shameless. She's my wife, you registered our marriage and everything, so we're protected by the law." know. We've Michael was enraged to hear that. He wanted to charge forward but was stopped by Yasmin who was crying. "Michael, let's just go..." Michael angrily pushed Yasmin away and turned to leave.
Yasmin glanced back atwith a barely perceptible smirk in her eyes.
It looked like she was planning something. And whatever it was, it seemed as if everything was going to her plan.
I scoffed. I was ready to find out what sort of plans she had cooked up.
"Let go," I said in a deep voice. I lifted my head to glance at Steven.
Steven huggedwith an aggrieved look on his face. He wouldn't let go of my hand.
"Let go," I said once more.
